Most men want sex
It seems these days
Not love, so sad
Amidst the haze
Of instant love
The net can offer
It promises to
Like a sadistic scoffer
Cheap thrills it’s true
Not love these days
Not even the promise
Of the hot suns rays
No wooing, kissing innocently
Just requests to visit your home quickly
Is romance dead?
I do now ask
The answer obtained
Is no easy task
With romance movies
Titled so
Their synopsis reads
Rather pornographic...oh!
Whatever happened to the golden age
Could it be foreseen our time
By the most depressed sage?
Who upon looking into
The future here
Found love was dead
Compared to yesteryear
Divorce, separation, sexual identity confusion
Love now resembles
A passionless union
Dating apps lure the innocent woman
Where men of ill intent go to scratch their itch on
No waiting, pursuing, testing,
Proving
Now all seems fast
Like McDonald’s coffee brewing
Chastity gone
Women cry
Chivalry dead
From men who lie
To get what they want
Without earning
Satisfying only
Their physical yearning
Hearts forgotten
Broken, trampled
The rules foresaken
By lust so ample
When will we remember those beautiful days
When romance blossomed
In the suns eternal rays?
Now all I know is
The days are evil
Men are carnal
Women are feeble
I long for courtship
From a gentleman
And a shimmer of light
Says that I can
See the resurrection
Of romance once more
And God whispers to me
Louder than before
He bends his knee
To touch my soul
With words of faith
To make me whole
As I incline my ear
To hear Him speak
“The romance that lives is the love you seek”
And now I know
Romance is not dead
For the God of love
Did lift my head
